    A much-needed boost for white water paddler Luuka Jones ahead of next year's Olympic Games in Paris


    She's won her first World Cup title in the women's kayak cross event, held at the same venue where the discipline will make its Olympic debut.

    Jones returned in June after nearly a year plagued with long Covid.

    She says everything's gone to plan.
